專家說明

While not engraved with initials it seem probable that these vegetable dishes form part of a service supplied to Frederick Augustus II, Elector of Saxony and Augustus III, King of Poland (1696-1763). Paul Ingermann is recorded by O'Byrns in 1880 as producing the 'Dresden Service' in 1746 (U. Arnold, Dresdner Hoffsilber des 18. Jahrhunderts, Dresden, 1994, p. 38) and it is perhaps that service to which the present dishes belong.

They are close in form to another, later, example by Christian Heinrich Rossbach of Dresden made to match examples, possibly the present lot, from the 'Dresden Service' (U. Arnold, op. cit., p. 42, fig. 22). The finials can also be compared to other examples made for the court at Dresden including examples from the 'FA in Shield Service' such as a pair of dish covers, (Sotheby's, London, 23 November 2004, lot 83A), though that pair are lacking the berried calyx.
